I think this new browser window has opened up a lot of possibilities!
The first mod I want to do for it is a minimize button like the infocenter has. The other main things it's missing are a history function and bookmarks. The history is contained in the history.dat file but I'm not sure if there's a built in function to access that... I'm hoping there is somehow.
At first I was thinking of adding a bookmarks window within the window like the advanced broker search works, but I think you would still have to edit the bookmarks by hand outside of eq2. After messing around a little I think just pointing the browser to my own Firefox bookmarks will work ok. On my computer the file is:
file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Nicky/Application%20Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/c3lf2nw4.default/bookmarks.html
That already has every bookmark I ever use on this computer so I may as well make things easy on myself and reuse that. As soon as the /browser <URL> command comes I'll be able to just put that into a macro.
All the options and hidden preferences for Mozilla can be seen if you type about
:config into the location. One thing I noticed is that the browser doesn't cache anything so if you have the same image 100 times, like on an eq2map, it has to download that little image 100 times. That's the settings browser.cache.memory.enable and browser.cache.disk.enable. It looks like you can't modify the about
:config settings from the in-game browser but I'm going to try directly editing the prefs.js file.

Here are a couple other interesting things to try:
about
:buildconfig
about
:plugins (no plugins at all, so no Flash, Quicktime, Java, Acrobat, Realplayer, etc.)
about
:mozilla
I can read my infocenter pages just by pointing to
file:///C:/Program%20Files/Sony/EverQuest%20II/UI/NickUI/infocenter/
Hmm, except Mozilla doesn't wrap long lines in a txt file... but the possibilities are pretty big.
